About
Probably the most challenging hike the creator has done, an overnight hike with a lot of elevation, distance, and a heavy pack. The trail is technical but the views are worth it.
Why go
- The views are worth it
- Incredibly rewarding hike
- Magical weekends
Must try
- Hike to French Ridge Hut
Pro tips
- Last few kilometers climb straight up the hill
- Park at Raspberry Creek carpark
- Need a filter for alpine tarns
- Hut was fully booked, tent spots available
Good to know
- Last 3 km are tough, a lot of tree roots and pulling yourself up with your hands
- Fees are currently NZD $40 per person
